Description
We’re inviting open-hearted souls to join our workaway exchange, our mindful retreat hostel nestled on Koh Phangan. This exchange is not just about tasks – it’s about being part of a family and holding space for others on their journey.
The exchange:
* 25 hours/week of support, with 2 days off
* 2 delicious vegan meals daily, from our Thai kitchen & plant-based café (limited but nourishing menu)
* Shared accommodation in one of our cozy dorms (not volunteer-only)
Your contribution includes:
* Hosting gentle activities like morning meditation, pranayama & breathwork sessions for our guests
* Participating in and helping organize day trips, evening events and hosting family dinners
* Supporting our social media: capturing moments, organizing content, posting stories/reels, and helping behind the scenes with some light admin tasks
You’re welcome to join all classes and offerings during your stay – from yoga to workshops to sound healing.
Practical notes:
* No transportation needed for your tasks – we’re walking distance from the pier, and taxis are provided for hostel-related trips.
* We do recommend renting a scooter to explore the beauty of Koh Phangan on your days off (scooters are not available at this place).
* This is more than an exchange – it’s a chance to connect, co-create, and contribute to a conscious, heart-centered space.
** We’re especially looking for people who’d love to stay longer-term and truly become part of the family. 1 - 3 months.**

Yaara in particular took great care in communication, making a great first ever Workaway experience! Starting the day off with yoga whilst having a gorgeous beach view was the best. You get the opportunity to learn how to ride a scooter if you don’t already know how to do so. You also get your own bungalow which really helps! Highly recommend!

Very friendly, helpful, adventurous and kind!
They were a huge help and aside from a few miscommunications the first few days, (mainly due to English not being the first language to any of the sides:), they were amazing!
Would highly recommend their presence and help to anyone lucky enough to have them!
